Beginner to fully qualified paramotor
Introduction
We provide everything! If you arrive without your wallet, it won’t make any difference at all. So many courses add on extras for equipment hire, fuel, accommodation, meals, and everything else. We simply give you a price and that’s it.
The Para Lab is a state of the art paramotor training facility run in conjunction a number of the most innovative manufacturers of paramotor equipment. It is also a test and development facility for new equipment, as well as being an academy of excellence for training instructors.
Based in Southern Spain, we run a range of courses teaching beginners (by special arrangment), paragliding conversion courses, safaris, paramotor SIV, Instructor Development courses and trike paramotoring. Using the most modern equipment and training techniques we will turn you into confident, talented pilots while placing a big emphasis on safety, as well as being a whole lot of fun. We can either provide the very latest gear or arrange to transport your own equipment out to us.
All of our courses are BHPA courses run by BHPA instructors.

The Flying
We take a maximum of 6 people and support this with 4 instructors. The key to our excellence in teaching is the incredible talent and depth of experience of our instructors and the low student to instructor ratio. Beginners will progress quickly with initial flights from local hills or using a winch on our take off field. This course is very intensive and will take you from beginner all the way up to Club Pilot qualified. There is a huge amount of content to cover so you will find it challenging.
Your course will start with unpowered flights which will teach you inflation and glider control skills and this generally takes 2 – 3 days. Following this you’ll be working with the motor and quickly will be flying circuits of our airfield and then small cross country flights. The view from the air is just incredible and you’ll fly over rolling hills, small mountains, Moorish watch towers and beautiful white washed villages.
Accomodation
Our base is a stunning villa which is a beautiful converted cortijo with a central courtyard and swimming pool. Located near the stunning hill top town of Moron de la Frontera and just over an hour from Seville airport, it is easily reached by car. You will be completely spoiled from the moment you arrive. All meals and drinks are included and our meals use the best local ingredients so you’ll get a real taste of local Spain. On you arrival you will hold a welcome meeting with drinks and canapés by the pool.
Of course, you will have your own (private) room, allowing you to relax in comfort.
Our villa has everything you’d expect from a location of this calibre including wifi, DVD, sound system, etc
